= Flying High with Fedora 7 Preview =

{{{
Please note the decision on the artwork to be packaged with Fedora Core 7 has not been made. The images presented here represent an artistic concept currently under development by the Fedora artwork team. Your comments are appreciated and welcomed.

== Concept ==

The concept of this submission is based on the open source value of "excellence" and the theme celebrates the level of achievement obtained by the efforts of the fedora community. This concept moves away from the bubble effects of fc5 and the water illusion of fc6 but attempts to retained the round elements found in both with the balloons.

==== GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader) ====

~-Comments: GRUB (aka Grand Unified Bootloader) is the first screen to accept artwork in the boot process. In most cases the previous and the next screen will be presented with a black backgrounds so this screen is cast in a simular manner. The display time is often two (2) seconds. One of the big issues with this screen is the requirement of a image size of 640x480 pixels and the limit of 16 colors. As the native resolution of the display expands so does the image at the cost of clarity.-~

~-Comments: Many early comments suggested the inclusion of additional natural colors into the theme. This wallpaper is an attempt to fulfill that desire. Although most wallpapers do not use branding, this submission displays a very soft fedora brand in the lower right corner.-~
